Women's Commission

تهدف لجنة ديترويت النسائية المشكلة حديثًا من قبل رئيس البلدية مايك دوجان ونائبة رئيس البلدية ميليا هوارد - وهي هيئة استشارية مكونة من تسعة أعضاء تم إنشاؤها عن طريق تعيين رئيس البلدية - إلى تخصيص مساحة للنساء فقط للقيادة ووضع الاستراتيجيات والتأثير على صنع القرار على أعلى مستوى في حكومة المدينة.

ستعقد لجنة ديترويت لشؤون المرأة اجتماعات شهرية لمناقشة ومعالجة القضايا الحرجة التي تؤثر بشكل مباشر على الحياة الاجتماعية والاقتصادية للنساء في جميع أنحاء المدينة. ويشمل ذلك كل شيء بدءًا من فجوة الأجور ووصولاً إلى الحصول على خدمات الصحة الإنجابية، ومن عدم استقرار السكن إلى السلامة العامة، ومن وفيات الأمهات إلى الصحة النفسية - وكل قضية تتفاقم بسبب نقص الاستثمار وإهمال السياسات، لا سيما بالنسبة للنساء السود.

لا تقتصر مهمة هذه اللجنة على الاستماع فحسب، بل تتعداها إلى العمل. ستعمل اللجنة على تطوير أساليب واستراتيجيات تستند إلى التجارب المعيشية والبحوث والتعاون. والهدف هو استباق المخاطر التي تواجهها العديد من نساء ديترويت.
